A farewell message of Gedewon Bussery

I regret that I cannot be with you today to honor the memory of my dear friend, Mr. Gideon Bussery, whom I had the privilege of knowing for nearly 27 years. We first met at the OSA Conference in Seattle in 1998, though I was already familiar with his family through mutual acquaintances. From the outset, I was struck by his intellect, humility, and depth of knowledge—qualities that extended far beyond his professional training. Gedewon was not only an accomplished professional but also a gentleman and an avid reader, which made every conversation with him enriching.

When I published a book in 2014, Gideon was the first to volunteer to help distribute it within his community, successfully selling 30 copies alongside Almaz. This gesture reflected his generosity and strong community ties. Over the years, our friendship endured through calls, social media, and virtual meetings. In fact, when we launched the WBC media network four years ago, Gedewon was my first choice as a founding board member. He devoted his time and resources wholeheartedly, never missing a meeting and contributing interviews in Oromo, and Amharic—interviews that will keep his legacy alive.

We have lost a remarkable man—a devoted husband to Almaz and a pillar of his community. I was fortunate to join a recent Zoom tribute that demonstrated the profound respect he commanded. My last conversation with him was the day before his passing. When I learned his treatment had ended, I could only say, “I love and respect you,” to which he replied, “I love you back.” That was our farewell, and nothing more I could say or do.

Rest in peace, my friend.
